for homeplug

better get aztech brand,

model wise 200Mbps would be enough,

unless u have higher budget then get 500Mbps noise filer type  notworthy.gif

was thinking abt the 500mbps.. cos later wanna add a NAS.. so.. dont think 200mbps is gonna be enough..
sorry for Out of topic.. biggrin.gif

I tried both from Trunk & AA1, seems just fine. Maybe EOF because the download was stuck and did not finish? I got that EOF message when I wget from the VM in my PC. When download to a remote server, works just fine.

This is the AA1 Image Builder that I've successfully downloaded : http://ssh.st0rage.org/~ibnuasad/OpenWrt-I...ux-i486.tar.bz2

weird.. not stuck anywhere.. i tried downloading it twice.. nvm.. done making an image from svn+packages.. but donno whether it'll work or not.. if i brick my 3420, cry.gif

I just went through the process of building images + all 3g usb packages 

Backed up all settings before flashing, and then went to the web interface for flashing  rclxm9.gif

Congratulations, I have successfully BRICKED my MR3420 v1.2  doh.gif  rclxub.gif
Machine gun button failsafe does not work...sys light not even on  sweat.gif

Now I have to find a serial cable and some soldering kit to debrick. Will probably do it next month...this month got final exams  yawn.gif

any different between AA and TRunk image ?

i notice there is a few new packages is ready installed too ,..
here everything

just newer packages i think.. probably the RTM for AA..

i made the image with default profile, just like from the normal download from openwrt site.. plus added the luci interface that got ibnuasad stuck.. and nano, so we could edit files via ssh in the event of a softbrick...

oh, that's the new packages i notice just now,

one more thing, i just want to ask how could we retrieve Micro sd card in the modem slot while we plug it in our openwrt now, any idea ?  hmm.gif
*
that relates to usb storage and samba i think, but, TL-MR3420 flash memory is too small.. just 4MB, not enough room for all packages for 3g connectivity and usb storage+samba..

some tried using powered usb hub and connects modem, usb storage.. but that just complicates the setup.. me also rclxub.gif wanna do usb storage on 3420..

Excellent  rclxms.gif  notworthy.gif Will try it on my other v1.3 router later  icon_idea.gif

khairilyazit, my router still cannot go to webgui. When turn on the router, all led will light up at once for 1 second but after that, only PWR & LAN# light up. SYS led does not light up. Any ideas to debrick without serial cable?  icon_question.gif  sweat.gif


Added on December 3, 2012, 3:52 amThe "Network Connections" on pc says LAN; Unidentified Network, No Network Access

did u try setting to static ip 1st?
if can, then u can telnet or ssh to the client..

but since ur sys led didn't lit up.. i'm afraid it may really be bricked..

i read the wiki page.. seems like u need a serial to debrick. cause its a hard brick..

u could try set to static ip and see if the router responds.. if it responds, use telnet or ssh to login then install luci..
make sure to connect a network to the wan port for internet..

On many routers, including the Asus WL-500g Premium v1 that I use, you flash an image by disconnecting power, press and hold down the reset button, and connect the power again. Wait a few seconds and the PWR LED will start to blink. Release the reset button. The device will now have a TFTP server running on 192.168.1.1.

You’ll have to use a Ethernet cable at this point. Connect it to LAN1-LAN4, not WAN. Configure your local machine on the 192.168.1.x/24 network, for example as 192.168.1.42. The router will use 192.168.1.1.

$ tftp 192.168.1.1

Wait one minute and restart the box by disconnecting and reconnecting power. Some documentations claim that the device should restart by itself but I have never seen this happen, no matter how long I wait.
